State carnival report

 Last week, a team from Breakers packed our bowls and travelled up to Forster to join another 900 or so Women for the State Carnival. Kim, Phyllis, Sue and I had a very successful carnival, winning 3 out of our 6 games and being the daily section winner for our last day at Taree.  We played games at Tuncurry, Buladelah and Taree.  Good games and good company .  Lots of compliments (  as usual) about our uniforms.  Thanks to Sue for organising lovely accomodation in Forster .  Not sure where next carnival will be - they are still in negotiations for this but we will certainly be going again and would love some more Breakers people to come with us so we can wander the town or restaurants in a pack of 8 ! Start saving your money now.

Just a reminder

 During pennants, we have only been paying the green fees.  We hope you have enjoyed the free tea and coffee ☕️🫖 and the pennant teams really have appreciated your support as we have played our games .

Now our home pennant games are over , we will go back to $15 which will also means the lucky door prize will be up for grabs as well as the winning and losing rinks. 

Don’t forget the Lion’s Club fundraising dinner for Elsie’s retreat. It’s on 19th June at Wamberal Surf Club . SMS me if you would like to come along.

Our donated quilt, which we raffled during the pennant season was won by Narelle O’Dwyer and the cushions by Betty Troy. Thank you everyone for your support of the raffle - we raised $260.

Happy Mother’s Day

 Happy Mother’s Day to everyone.  Enjoy being looked after and a special thank you to those who are looking after their Mums at this stage of their journey.  To those of us who do not have a mum physically with us anymore, we enjoy the special memories we have and keep them close to us in our hearts. 

Club triples

 Next Tuesday, 11th May, Match will be posting the entry form for our Club Triples which will start on 8th June.  Time for you to get those diaries out , check your availability and get organised !  It will be great for the Match Committee to have lots of entries. You can always put out those feelers- don’t wait for someone to approach you if you want to play. The format is 3 bowl triples and 18 ends. 

See you all on Tuesday .  Our pennant team will be at home playing Avoca so we have our fingers crossed for good games and good weather .
